Default G1 will not go fwd or rev

I have a Yamaha g1. The generator/starter will go forward and reverse but the primary clutch won't close up and turn. The starter seems to be turning fast enough. Actually it caught once and went into fwd but when I stopped that was it. Any help will be appreciated.

Sounds like the starter is turning, but the engine is not starting and running. Check spark, fuel and compression, that is what it takes to get an engine to run.

I guess my starter was turning but my engine wasn't running either!!! Couldn't see the forest because of the trees............!! Thanks for the help, a wire on the ignition system had fallen off. Sorry to have bothered you with something so basic.

This is the Gas Yamaha forum, try posting in the Electric forum, the guys there know much more about Sparkies.
